🤪🤪

This is my favorite margarita. Salt foam dry orange curaçao, fresh lime juice. Each is hand shaken, no pitcher of drinks here.🤪
Takes me back to the ' Dangerous Margarita ' party nights at Mildenhall with my USAF chums and local guys n gals - for the record a ' Dangerous Margarita ' is the method of serving - in a British 1 pint dimpled beer jug !!! salt rimmed of course -

Yep, that's why I recommended Snake Oil Cables. They have done these actual cables, and also speaker output cables. And I can verify they work. It's not just a gender change. One channel will be inverted with a gender-change-only cable.
Thanks again for your advice. I did reach out to Snake Oil Cables. No response. No big deal.

Nemal makes a Raal compatible gender change adapter. Travis from Corpse Cables called me the next day. My cable will be here Monday. Same with your people, same quick response. All the help is appreciated.

Thanks for also idiot proofing the close out site. Since your products have a long lifespan, could you make it easier to search for legacy products? This thread is fun, but very difficult to filter out product information vs the other topics. Even a section on your website for manual downloads would be great.

Built these pieces of Schiit. Never done surface mount before but had to start after seeing these boards at the Schittr.

These amps honestly sound pretty good to me, despite not being designed for performance at all. They seem to have a slightly "looser" (airy? idk) sound than I'm used to and plenty of ringing if you move them around at all but these things drive my headphones really well! Not great for IEMs due to noise floor and ringing.
I built many of them just to see how many round enclosures I could create. I wanted to mount one in a scotch bottle but that never panned out. I also thought of doing a snow globe with mineral oil on the inside but sealing the globe would have been a nightmare. :ksc75smile: I did manage to mount one inside a Magic 8 Ball.

The mineral oil snow globe is a really cool idea but yeah that sounds like a real pain.
Gotta get some pictures of that 8 ball Vali!

Yup

Yup ... I did that for a Magni 3 that was gifted to me by my father. You can then rub off some of the paint on the edges and make it look a bit more interesting/worn as well. Here it is mounted in my headphone stand.

Cool. I just might try that.

I wonder if there are spray on paints that approach the powder coated look of the new black Schiit finish.

PM me if you want to try it. The 8 Ball is not easy to open.
